CM Punk is still making headlines and is at a main event level whenever he wrestles in WWE. The star, since his return, has been involved in the biggest storylines in the company. However, there has been talk about what's next for him, once he is done and retires from active in-ring competition. There has been speculation about him working backstage as a producern and as part of the creative team. Now, speaking on Two Man Power Trip of Wrestling, Jimmy Wang Yang talked about the issue surrounding this.

Yang, who has worked as a producer himself, said that he loved CM Punk and thought that he was awesome. He also said that he was a genius about pro wrestling. However, he felt there was one issue, and that was with dealing with the multiple issues that producers had to deal with. He felt that Punk was not going to take that as much as others had to in those positions.

"Punk is awesome. I love Punk. His mindset for the business and the stories and angles that he has in his head are genius. He's a genius for professional wrestling. He definitely could (be a producer), but I know he wouldn't take the s**t that producers have to take, so I don't know. It might be different now with the new ownership, but Punk's not gonna take as much poo-poo as others, so."
